About

Backend & Full Stack Engineer specializing in scalable systems, cloud infrastructure, and high-performance applications.

I work primarily with Node.js, JavaScript/TypeScript, AWS, Redis, PostgreSQL, and modern backend architectures to build reliable, production-grade systems. My experience includes designing APIs, optimizing distributed services, debugging complex production issues, improving application performance, and building cloud-native solutions.

I enjoy solving engineering problems related to:
• Scalability & system design
• API architecture & backend optimization
• AWS infrastructure & deployments
• Redis caching & performance tuning
• CI/CD & DevOps workflows
• Production debugging & incident RCA
• AI infrastructure & learning platforms

I’ve worked across backend-heavy products, SaaS platforms, and learning systems where reliability, maintainability, and performance are critical.

Beyond development, I actively explore software architecture, distributed systems, AI infrastructure, and engineering best practices. I also write and share technical insights around scalability, backend engineering, and cloud systems.

Tech Stack:
Node.js • TypeScript • JavaScript • React • AWS • Redis • PostgreSQL • MongoDB • Docker • REST APIs • CI/CD • Git • Linux

I value clean architecture, strong ownership, and building systems that scale effectively in real-world production environments.
